Tire Chains/Cables
I know I'm gonna get killed for this one but here goes...
It only snows like 3 days a year here and I'm not buying separate rims/tires for those 3 days. I figured I would just get a ride to work on those days.
But, in case i cant I wanted to know if anyone has used (or if they even make) tire chains/cables for our tires? I could have sworn I saw a porsche with some sort of tire cables on the tires last winter.
Has anyone ever used them? If so, do you have any recommendations? I have the G37S and the tires dont have much of a sidewall. I dont want these cables scratching my rims.
Thanks!

If anything you'd want cables, but with the minimal fender gap, your going to start flapping cables into the fender wheels. Seriously a RWD G is not the car for snowy conditions. I slip in heavy rain sometimes, Ice would be too much for me in the G. Now the Suburban in snow, that thing just keeps on truckin'!

damnit! I figured you guys would say that. Wish I could work from home but I can't.
I'm going to look into getting cables and keeping them in the trunk for an emergency. If I wake up and there's snow on the ground I can just find another way to work. The thing that I'm worried about is being at work while snowstorm passes through. That would suck.

I know, I'm just taking another cheap shot at tow truck drivers.
